The most direct references are included below.
Without knowing exactly what your questions are – other than for specific references – I will caution you that the formula in the attachment you are looking at for total standard deviation is for a
very specific application within a Gauge R&R study where there are at least two repeat measured for each part and a limited sample size for the study.
I rarely use this formula instead recommending the
use of historical data to calculate the total standard deviation using the traditional formula. This approach alleviates the need to estimate a total standard deviation based on a small sample that specifically and intentionally ‘adds’ the measurement error to the observed results in the study. But more importantly it also avoids the larger impact of the
bias that can result from samples that are representative of the
range of the process variation but are not representative of the
distribution of that process variation. This bias can result in substantial over or under estimation of the total standard deviation.
Again, the direct reference for using the sample correction factor multiplier for measurement error is:
